Recover Your Losses By The Power Of God. Peter I. O
DIVINE WORKS OF RECOVERY IN THE LIFE OF JOSEPH
The story of Joseph, the eleventh son of Jacob, is an excellent example of how God recovers and restores our losses. It is an exciting biblical event that contains intriguing revelation knowledge of how God recover and restore His people. Joseph was a man whom God revealed the greatness of his destiny. Out of excitement, he related his dreams to his parents and his siblings, thinking they would rejoice with him. To his amazement, his parents and his siblings did not regard his dreams. The dreams which God revealed to Joseph sounded so fascinating in the ears of his brethren. Therefore, they doubted the possibility of such dreams coming to fulfilment. Joseph's family members came against him instead of encouraging him. As a result of this maltreatment, Joseph lost many things in the journey of his life because he was antagonized by his biological family members who supposed to be a source of encouragement to him.
Let's consider the things Joseph lost in the journey of his life.
1) Joseph lost parental love and care (Genesis 37:31-34)
2) Joseph lost his relationship with his brothers (Genesis 37:35)
3) Joseph lost his good health (Genesis 37:24)
4) Joseph lost his garment of many colours (Genesis 37:23)
5) Joseph lost his friends (Genesis 37:2)
6) Joseph lost his first job in his father's house (Genesis 37:2)
7) Joseph lost his second job in Potiphar's house as a governor (Genesis 39:3-6)
8) Joseph lost his garment of governorship in Potiphar's house (Genesis 39:10-16)
9) Joseph lost his freedom of movement because he was put in prison (Genesis 39:20-21)
10) Joseph "temporally" lost his value as a great man (Genesis 39:20).
Despite all this quantum of losses which were painful experiences in the life of Joseph, he had two things that upheld him and helped him to fulfil his dreams;
1) God
2) Life
Even if you lose everything in life, don't lose the presence of God. If God be with you and you have your breath in you, there is a divine assurance that you will recover all and even more. In the book of Job 2:6, Before Job was tested, God made a pronouncement, which assured that Job would recover whatsoever he may lose in the supernatural adventure.
"And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life."
Though unknown to Job, God preserved his life so He could restore his losses when the sore temptations are over. The two things Joseph had, which were “God and Life” that enabled him to fulfil his destiny, were the same things Job had, which guaranteed his recovery and restoration. The experience of Job was not an easy one because it was a combination of “Test from God and Temptation from Satan.” The questions I have for you are; "Do you have these two things? Do you have God and breathe of life in you?” If your answer to these questions is, “yes”, then there is adequate hope for divine recovery in your life irrespective of what you may have lost.
God chose to identify Himself as "I AM THAT I AM" to reveal to us that He is ever the same from ages to ages, and from generation to generation. The things He did thousands of years ago, He can still repeat them over and over again. If God could preserve Joseph and fulfil the dreams He showed him despite all his challenges; then God can also recover and restore all your losses.
As stated earlier, in this book, you will learn and gain the revelation knowledge on How Satan steals from the people, How God Almighty recover our losses, Our roles in the Divine works of recovery, and How to retain what we have recovered. Are you ready to acquire this life-changing knowledge? If you are ready, then continue reading.
